I neglected to point out that I am running as root via su in xfce on Slackware 13.37. I also tried to backup /etc and got the same insufficient privs message on over 50 files. I checked some of the files it barfs on most were rw------- and owned by root as user most were root group with some as daemon, examples in /etc/: .pwd.lock, at.deny, and sudoers
Had similar problems with /boot and in /root it flagged all files/directories. Any help??

I solved it. Got out of "su" and ran xfce under root login directly and K3B captured all the files.
I do not know whether this is a bug in K3b 2.0.2, Xfce 4.6.2, or Slackware 13.37 but any permissions bug I consider as serious.

xine-bugreport
XINE-CHECK(1) General Commands Manual XINE-CHECK(1)
NAME
xine-check - a checker for the xine video player
SYNOPSIS
xine-check [-q] [-v] [-B] [-b]
xine-bugreport [-q] [-v] [-B]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page explains the xine-checker program. xine-check is a program, which tests the xine video player installation for common
problems.
If you experience any problem with or while running xine, running xine-check might provide useful hints for problem tracking.
xine-check tests the operating system settings, installation of plugins, CD/DVD drive settings and video support parameters.
If run as xine-bugreport, it will produce a terse system description and guide you through the process of reporting a bug. This is the pre-
ferred way to report xine bugs, as it's easier for you and provides the developers with a more complete bugreport.
OPTIONS
The program follows usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options are included
below. For a complete description, see README and FAQ in /usr/share/doc/xine-ui or on the xine home page.
-h, --help
Show summary of options and version number.
The remaining options, labelled XINE-CHECK options: when listed with "xine-check --help", are explained here.
-q, --quiet
Only give a single one-line messages, even if problems are found. Normally xine-check provides hints for every problem found to
help solve the problem.
-v, --verbose
Enable extended output describing each check in detail, which produces a kind of frequently asked questions (FAQ) list.
-B, --batch
Turn off pause after long messages. Normally xine-check waits for confirmation after a problem was found or a long message was
printed.
-b, --bug
Produce a bug report. This is the same as calling xine-bugreport directly.
BUGS
none, of course ;-) Well, there are surely a few of those. You can probably best ask for support (and report bugs) on our mailing list at
<xine-user@lists.sf.net>.
